Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Water’s lower density in its solid form is due to the way hydrogen bonds are oriented as it freezes: the water molecules are pushed farther apart compared to liquid water.
Detailed explanation-2: -UKAS ISO/IEC17025 and ISO Guide 34 certified, density: 0.9982 g/mL at 20 °C, density: 0.9970 g/mL at 25 °C.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hence, gases have the least density.
